I am very tired after 2 days of waking the girls up early and shuffling everyone off to here and there. I have cried thinking about Lala navigating the halls of kindergarten and Little Em holding her own in daycare.

Cried more than once.

Okay, lots.

However, I had a pretty big frickin smile on my face yesterday. I met some of my new classmates, went to class, had lunch with a friend, went to the bookstore, tramped all over campus. I was hot and tired and busy. And it was awesome.

For all the crying and adjusting to this new era of our lives, I know we will all be the better for it.

These are my Words of Wisdom for myself on this fine Wednesday.

It’s so nice to feel good about the road you’re taking, even if it’s hard. It sounds like school will be a great thing for you. I always thought I’d go to graduate school, but I’m not sure I’m cut out for it any more.

What a wonderful role model you are for your children! It will be challenging physically and emotionally but you’ll be learning and growing yourself and demonstrating how important it is to take care of yourself to your children. kudos!
